Read "Who Wrote the Gospels" and "Ken's Guide to the Bible." Also listen to The Non-Prophets and The Atheist Experience, both available online.

You got that right..Not to mention the special diets these species need to survive. And how would they ,as he mentioned in his other video,even get there? The meerkats,the flying squirrels, the bears,butterflies,bees and roos,the cloud rats,the barn swallows,the egrets,the fiddler crabs,etc. Could you imagine the chaos,the spread of disease,the carnage,with that many creatures crowded together for an entire year on a little boat?

Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John are only the alleged authors of the parts that are, y'know, called the gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John; the rest is from some other people supposedly-'specially the Old Testament.<br />
<br />
Just say "We don't even know if those are actually the guys who wrote them!" and that'll be in line with reality since, y'know, books and people can lie and simply be wrong about who the author is and the burden to prove who wrote something is on anyone making a distinct claim as…

Exactly SGecko. I can't believe that we have to even come up with a straight-faced answer to whether or not there could have been a sudden global flood that covered everything. It's like having to give a straight-faced answer to "The moon is made of green cheese" or "God made the Earth in 6 days 6,000 years ago."<br />

As many Xian Fundies will note, most every aboriginal culture has a global flood story. A) See above re; localized flooding appearing global when you don't know how big the world is. B) We did indeed start coming out of an ice age 10,000 years ago. Ice melts, sea/lake/river levels go up. Floods. The river is higher now than anyone can remember. The city your great, great, great ancestors built is now underwater, making it look like the world was flooded. And so on.

This is too large a question to answer in short messages. There is really no satisfactory short answer, except to say that most of it was written by various people with the same name: anonymous. They were not trying to tell lies. They were telling it like they thought it was, or like they thought it should be, or like they thought it must be to appeal to the locals.<br />

You will need to read at least one book. Or listen to some audio tapes. Suggestions: Sheenan: The Historical Jesus (free audio lectures courtesy of Stanford U). Do a Google search for it. Download it and listen to the collection of them while you are doing something which leaves you free to listen and comprehend.<br />
